Public Safety Training

The Fulton County Public Safety Training Center (FCPSTC) was made operational by the Fulton County Board of Commissioners in 1987. The initial purpose of the FCPSTC was to provide in-service training for the Fulton County Police Department, Marshal’s Office, and Sheriff’s Office personnel. The Center currently offers coursework in basic law enforcement certification, basic jail certification, specialized, advanced, and in-service training to law enforcement personnel across the state.

The FCPSTC is located at 3025 Merk Road, College Park, GA 30349, occupying the space that once housed the former shooting venue for the 1996 Olympics. In addition to the training center’s academic campus, the FCPSTC owns and operates an Emergency Vehicle Operations Course and the David L. Hagins Firing Range.
